House Intelligence Chair Rep. Adam Schiff says he wasn't told about al-Baghdadi operation
Yahoo.com ^ | 10/27/2019 | JACK ARNHOLZ,

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff were not informed in advance of the U.S. special operations forces raid in northwestern Syria in which ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi died, Schiff said on ABC’s "This Week"

"My understanding [Pelosi] wasn’t [told]. But a couple of things, first of all, good riddance. [Al-Baghdadi] was a blood thirsty killer to the degree that he retained operational control of ISIS, Schiff said. "This is an operational success, this is a symbolic victory. He had the blood of thousands and thousands of people on his hands, including many Americans and American journalists. So, this a great day, a ruthless killer has been brought to Justice. "

Schiff appeared on "This Week" moments after President Donald Trump announced the raid in northwestern Syria on Saturday.

"Last night the United States brought the world’s number one terrorist leader to justice. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead," the president said in remarks Sunday morning.

“Schiff would have called Obama and we all know the ending then.”

Yep, have to agree, if Shifty would have known, he would most definitely called Ovomit and since Ovomit still thinks he is the president, he would have speed dialed Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi since we were all treated to how much Ovomit loved the muslims for the 8 very long years he was in the White House.

After news of President Trump's ICE raids were leaked, why wouldn't he think that news of this raid would be leaked, too?

I don’t think this article completely accurate.

According to my sources, Adam Schi**y asked to be kept in the loop. POTUS asked the anal pore if he could touch his wee wee to his rectal opening. Schi**y said he could, so POTUS told him to go screw himself.

The real difference between what John Durham is doing and what Adam Schiff is doing is that John Durham is following the legal processes of gathering evidence, presenting it to a grand jury comprised of ordinary citizens, obtaining indictments based on their collective wisdom, and building a real case that must stand up in a US court. Adam Schiff is prosecuting a President with no articulated crime, no evidence of wrong doing, and in secret with no review by actual citizens. Its the difference between a legitimate use of prosecutorial power and a political hit job by a hack politician.

This operation was ran as ALL special operations and even conventional operations are to be ran...Only the people involved closely had the need to know...

Way to go, Mr President...!

Hey Schiff, the President didn’t tell you and Pelosi that he was going to have al-Baghdadi chased by dogs and then killed in his underground lair because he didn’t want any obligation to inform ISIS when he does it to you.< /joke, maybe>

>>If I were Trump, I’d consider leaking a fake operation to Schiff. Then wait to see how minutes pass before it’s reported on MSNBC.

That is a BRILLIANT idea. Call it “Operation Fortitude” (shiftforbrains has no knowledge of history or anything else). Hits the wire 5 minutes after briefing? 10? No more for sure.

I guess they remembered how the Democrats acted when it was ICE raids.

“House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday warned her caucus about President Donald Trump’s planned immigration raids this weekend, urging members to spread information about undocumented immigrants' legal rights.”

They would have likely flown over and thrown themselves on top of the guy if the President had given them heads up.

I would say that Trump has learned who he CAN trust at this point.

He knows who knew and who DIDN’T talk.

Maybe their confidential whistle blower should have alerted him?
